27, No Kids, Treating Myself - Dominican Republic

If you are in the North Carolina area and need post op treatments its this beauty med spa called Massage Contour in Charlotte and they have another location in Cornelius. They do great lymphatic drainage massages and for reasonable price. The owner is from Spain and all of the employees are from Colombia or Ecuador. They are very nice and professional and the spa is beautiful! I drive a hour and a half to see them. I'm glad I finally found a good spa in NC. It has been hard! lol my skin is finally softening up. I went a whole day without compression this past Saturday and I did have some swelling in my sides and lower abdomen. When I went to get my massage last week the therapist said I have a small spot of fibrosis so I'm going to have cavitation and some other treatment she recommended. I can't remember what it's called but I'll take pictures to show you guys.

The ace bandage is helping a lot. I bought 2 to wrap my waist. I put a tank top on. the foam then my ab board then wrap my abdomen with the ace bandage. So much better than the faja. I'. going to get about 2 more lymphatic massages then the massage therapists says to do a few cavitation treatments just to tight my lower abdomen a little more. I had stubborn fat in my lower abdomen for years and after lipo the skin is a little loose my nothing to noticeable. I did not go with a tummy tuck because I don't have children and I didn't want that scar yet, but I'm definitely having one after I have children lol. I still go walking and squat every single day and I'm eating healthier. I'm trying to maintain as much as possible.

It's been hard finding someone who does good post op massages and treatment in my area but I finally found one about 45 mins away from me. I'm going to try them out next week. I STILL have the burning and tightness in my lower back and sides. It doesn't seem to be letting up just yet. I've been having protein shakes for breakfast in hopes that it will help my muscles heal faster. I also have been wrapping my stomach with an ace bandage for more compression. I saw sheneka Adams use this method and thought it may help with my lower back. I'll let you guys know if it helps.
